Parmesan Lemon Chicken

Golden brown, juicy, tender, parmesan-crusted chicken breasts in a creamy, lemon-garlicky sauce made in 30 minutes!

Ingredients
  • 6 chicken cutlets
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan, divided
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • ¼ cup dry white wine
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
  • for the parmesan mixture
  • 5 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Directions
  1. Season chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  2. Working one at a time, dredge chicken in parmesan mixture until evenly coated.
  3. Heat butter and vegetable oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  4. Working in batches, add chicken to the skillet in a single layer and cook until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 4-5 minutes per side; set aside. Reduce heat to medium low.
  5. Stir in garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  6. Whisk in remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
  7. Gradually whisk in chicken stock, wine and lemon juice. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
  8. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan, heavy cream and parsley; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Return chicken to the skillet.
  9. Serve immediately.
